Introduction to Botanical Illustration

Thursdays, January 23rd - February 20th 9:30 am - 12:30 pm

Adkins Arboretum, 12610 Eveland Road, Ridgely

Drawing is the backbone of botanical art. A painting is only as good as the drawing beneath. In this introduction to botanical drawing taught by Talbot County artist Lee D'Zmura, participants will learn the skills and techniques necessary to capture the essence of flowers, fruits, pods, and leaves. Form, scale, depth, and perspective will be emphasized in this graphite workshop. Each student will produce a detailed botanical study in pencil. Lee is an award-winning botanical artist whose experience as a landscape architect enriches her watercolors. The fine detail in her paintings is in part the result of years of technical drawing. This five-session program meets Thursdays from January 23 to February 20.
Fee: $115 members, $140 non-members. Registration is required. Register online at www.adkinsarboretum.org
